  Is it worth risking dying to be able to move a mouse slightly faster than you can move your eyes and blink? If your answer to that is yes that’s your body, but I think it’s important to contextualize that the options here aren’t brain implant or nothing.

    Because instead of a mouse cursor today, it could be a robotic leg or anything else tomorrow.

    Being able to control electronics with the same ease we do our own body has so many benefits.

      Except there are other companies working on this problem that don’t come with the baggage Musk brings with him.

      One is even looking at using veins to insert the microchip.
